You can use the protos described in this section to add to the appearance of your
views in certain ways. There are three view appearance protos:

The

protoBorder

is a view filled with black. You can use this proto as a

border, a line, or a black rectangle. For more information about the slots and
methods for this proto, see “protoBorder” (page 6-56) in Newton Programmer’s
Reference
. Figure 7-28 shows an example of a

protoBorder

view.
